Exhaust options......again
« on: 01 November 2011, 08:17 »
Discrete but resonated or non resonated?

Has anyone fitted a scorpion cat back system?

I know milltek are very popular.

Thanks

non-resonated if you're going Milltek otherwise you'll never hear it

I had a Milltek decat and then had a Prospeed cat back fitted (they are a Cardiff exhaust place)

don't want loud anyway - had noted that TDi doesn't have centre box anyway.

scorpion and milltek are both made in Derby ...... :undecided: only difference is back box size

milltek is longer and narrow
scorpion short and fat.

I don't want loud - a bit more free revving i'm not expecting a massive difference

I had my Anni valence cut



Ideally it should be tucked up a little further but I was happy with it

I almost went discrete then thought if I'm paying £300 for some shiny metal I want to see at least some of it  :grin: :grin:
